Once the application is complete (including all required reference letters), please send an email with the subject line: "FCMML - graduate applicant (skule)" (without quotation marks). The body of the email should include a cover letter describing how your research interests fit with the research area of the lab and describing any previous related research experience (e.g. summer internships). An electronic transcript for all previous and current degrees should be attached to the email message, along with a CV or resume, all combined in one .pdf file with your name as the title.
Undergraduate students
There are generally several summer positions and undergraduate thesis positions available each year. To apply for summer research positions or for fourth-year thesis projects for undergraduate students, please send an email with the subject line "FCMML - undergraduate applicant (skule)" (without quotation marks). The body of the email should include a cover letter describing how your research interests fit with the research area of the lab.
